Chancers is the solo basement recording project for Philly's favorite adopted son Will McAndrew. When we lived together I wondered what the hell he was doing down in our dark basement sitting at a desk with his gear d.i.'ed into an 8 track. These song's were recorded after those days but were well worth the wait. I was pleasantly surprised when Will sent me the songs, not having any idea what I was going to hear. I described it "as if Milk Music was trying to write a Silver Jews record while listening to "Darklands" by Jesus and Mary Chain". I love all those things, and would be curious to hear a band attempt that, but in all honesty I would expect the outcome to suck. Will managed to pull that off while making something that sounds natural, and not like he's jamming the square peg in the round hole. it's something that I've enjoyed coming back to multiple times. Lyrics about doing bad boy stuff don't hurt either.
